Hi @alpacakyle!
Can I ask if the following recipe flow could work for you? You can achieve this simply by adding an additional status column and recipe…
You’d keep the original recipe to notify the project manager/owner that the phase has changed:
Then once the owner has been notified, they can choose to approve/disapprove the design via the status column - as such, based upon the approval the developer will be notified of next steps…
You can set up seperate recipes based on the whether the owner disapproves etc the design…
Let me know your thoughts!
